31 of the 79 postcodes now in use in Woodford came into use in January 2020 or later, ONS says. In the 12 months to September 2025, 21 of the 73 homes sold in Woodford were newly built (29%), HM Land Registry's records show; across the SK7 district, 10%.

A new postcode is often a new street or estate, but Royal Mail also makes new postcodes when it reorganises old ones, so not every one means new homes. Only postcodes still in use are counted.

Is Woodford at risk of flooding?

2 of the 79 postcodes in Woodford have a home or business in an area at risk of flooding from rivers or the sea, the Environment Agency says. At those, it puts 1 home or business in an area at high or medium risk.

Homes and businesses in an area at risk, at 2 of 79 postcodes High: 1Low: 2

High: 3.3% or more a year (1 in 30). Medium: 1% to 3.3% a year. Low: 0.1% to 1% a year. Very low: under 0.1% a year (1 in 1,000). Each band is the chance of flooding in any one year.

Homes and businesses in an area at risk of flooding from rivers or the sea, as the Environment Agency counts them, added up over the postcodes. It is for the land, not each building, and leaves out surface water, groundwater and sewers. Each postcode page has its own figures and its flood warning areas.
